Can you not phone them back and explain? Surely they don't expect you to have your phone by your side 24/7

Yes or say I never take calls when I'm working.....they can't fault you for that.

You have admitted defeat why not take your fate in your own hands?

find it hard to believe a company who obviously wanted to talk to you regarding work wouldnt listen to a call from yourself and not understand you were at work and without a phone for a few hours

So have you been told that you didn't get the job because you missed the call?

They should have called you to tell you they were going to call

You don't get this problem with telegrams.

Most prospective Employers and Employment agencies are very understanding with regard to calling during work hours. In fact, most will ask if they can call you or if they do call out of the blue will ask you if it's OK to talk.

I agree with most that you should try calling them back and simply explain that it was not convenient to take their call.

Take positive action rather than channeling negative vibes into a rant.

Of course the call was a test ? If you had answered in work time they would have known not to hire you xxx
